My
work is about feeling and the provocation of a feeling in
the mind, separate from the immediate visual response to the
aesthetics of the composition affront. 'Digital Art' or what
my work has come to be called is my experience with the interpretation
of mixed imagery and the stepping deeper into the 'what is'
in an attempt to show 'what is'.
The extraction of elements at a pixel level
bound together with the use of digital technology, software,
hardware and the various other tools to sow together a seamless
grafted thought from within the hectic of my mind. It is the
overlay of images, unconnected and sometimes even alien to
each other blended into abstraction to recreate a frozen moment
of action onto an inanimate medium of inaction.
My freedom from the evaluated 'commercial'
work and my indulgence in a forming passion. In the world
of colour, form, light, touch and sound visually represented
in a captured moment. Each piece although different in representation,
look and feel is created after having undergone a similar
process of creation of thought and of feeling. Each piece
is frenetically and fanatically worked upon in isolation till
the perfect visual creates itself.
This indulgence is not just a break away,
neither therapy nor remedy and most often not a pretty picture
either. Though the beauty lies in the creation of excited
pulses within the mind of anyone who looks at these pieces
without the aim of making an absolute sense of what is in
front of them. The imagery flickering at lightening speed
in their minds is the beauty of my work. The creation of my
art does not end with a print command or a glass frame. The
concept is to transfer through a medium such as this my thoughts
and my impulses into someone else's. As a kid, I used to always
wonder if there was a way or if there would ever be one by
which I myself could see exactly what I was thinking let alone
sharing it with others.
Note:
There is no final image in what you see and neither in what
I see. Every time I have looked at my work I have seen different
things in different pieces. This increases my curiosity to
understand what other viewers feel or see, rather than my
telling them what is to be seen in any of my works.
